Li Chengqian looked at Li Tai, who seemed to be uncomfortable sitting in front of him, frowned and knocked on the plate with chopsticks and said, "If you have something to say, hurry up, after eating, I still have to go to the court, come early in the morning and don't say a word, what's the matter?" If you don't want to talk, just eat, and just plug your mouth with rice. ”

Li Tai reluctantly drank a bowl of porridge and said to Li Chengqian: "Big brother, will you hand over Zhou Xing and Suo Yuanli to me?" When I entered the palace just now, many courtiers had already pulled me to cry. ”

Li Chengqian gulped down the buns in his hand and said to Li Tai: "Okay, wait another year, after I use them up, you can dispose of them." ”

"A year?" Li Tai jumped up in shock and said: "Big brother, if you let these two guys continue to mess around, there will be a big mess, your goal has been achieved, there is no need to go on like this, didn't you see that all the old ministers moved to Yushan to live?" Gao Yang's domineering temperament, after you took away her power to take charge of the weaving department, she also went to Yushan crying, it can't go on like this, another year, God knows what chaos will happen. ”

Li Chengqian rinsed his mouth, spit the tea into the spittoon and said with a smile: "What's the mess? What kind of chaos can happen, when the East China Sea Fleet and the commercial port are all dealt with, even if you don't kill those two people, I will kill them, it is necessary to calm down the people's anger, and now they are investigating the case of the East China Sea Fleet, and they can't be withdrawn. ”

Li Tai hugged his head and roared in pain: "Zhang Liang! What happened to him? ”

Li Chengqian said with a smile: "He has a son who eats human flesh, it is not a big problem to do this in the enemy-occupied area, and I still eat people in my Tang Dynasty, which is not good, but for the sake of Zhang Liang's very sensible and interesting situation, as long as he kills his cannibalistic son." He can still return to his hometown with honor and be his marquis.

You have a good temperament, so don't get involved in these dirty things, do your research well, by the way, I heard that Hypatia is pregnant again? Yes, what a capable one. But as an elder brother, I also have to say a few words about you, aren't there many concubines in your Han family? How is it always Hipatia that gives birth? Our Li family originally had Hu blood, and now is the time for us to slowly cleanse our bloodline, and it's not appropriate for you to always have blue-eyed children.

Hui'er is your son-in-law, Yuan Shoucheng helped you determine the Miao descendant, of course you can inherit your title in the future, but the bloodline matter must not be sloppy, brother I am the patriarch now, and the Zongren Mansion is always nagging. You work harder, and another child who is not blue-eyed prevaricates them. ”

Li Tai was immediately angry, slapped the table and yelled: "Do they have to take care of me when I sleep with that concubine?" ”

Li Chengqian hurriedly said gently: "Okay, good, good, it's their dog who is nosy with rats, don't ask, you go to the palace to see your sister-in-law and his newborn child." I've named him Li Ju, and I'm very smart. Go and see, I'm going to go to the court. ”

After Li Chengqian finished speaking, he announced that he would go to the court, Li Tai didn't like to see the bewitching woman of the Zhao family at all, God knows why the eldest brother took the opportunity to help the gentle woman of the Su family to the throne, and the Hou family is now dying. It is estimated that there will be a few days to live, and that stubborn woman has been cursing day and night for so many years after her daughter married Yunshou, and now she has finally come to the end of her life.

The Su family was still dressed in coarse cloth and lived in a courtyard in the Yeting Palace. Neither angry, nor sad, every day to take care of the flowers and plants in her yard, since the second child died of illness, taking care of flowers and plants has become her only hobby, there are rumors in the palace, his child is buried under this flower and plant......

When Li Tai entered the palace, he brought a lot of gifts, especially a big panda puppet that was the most popular with Su, and Su sat face to face and drank a cup of tea, and was about to retire, Su took out a bag of flower tea from the house and handed it to Li Tai and said: "Uncle take it, this is what I specially prepared for Hypatia, she just likes this, and she went to the palace to see me last time, and she talked about it." ”

Li Tai took the flower tea and said to Su Shi carefully: "Tell Xiang'er not to make trouble anymore, now it is different from the past, my uncle's words are not very effective now, once something happens, no one can help him, Yun Ye is already about to go to war with his eldest brother, so he can't count on it, although King Hengshan is only the king of the county, but his status is noble, don't think about it anymore." ”

Su Shi wept and said: "Who will listen to the words of the concubine now, who will listen, and only you will recognize me as a sister-in-law, no matter what, I can't help anyone, it will only become an obstacle to others!" ”

Li Tai didn't know what to say, so he had to sigh and walk out of the small courtyard, ready to go to see the Hou family again.

The Hou family, who has been thin to a handful of bones, finally stopped cursing, and was carried out by the palace maid and put on a reclining chair, wrapped in a blanket to bask in the sun, her conditions here are much better than those of the Su family, although Li Yanrong is not in Chang'an, the filial piety of the four seasons and eight festivals is never short, and because of Li Yanrong, the Hou family can live until now.

Li Tai asked the palace maid to move a chair, sat opposite Hou, and shook his hand in front of Hou, who seemed to be unconscious, and his eyes were still looking at the paulownia tree in the courtyard that had lost its leaves.

Let the entourage eunuch put down the gift, Li Tai planned to leave, the gray-haired Hou family is now no longer as glamorous as she used to be, she wants to be the queen all her life, but in the end, the end is the most miserable.

"I want to see Yanrong!"

Hou Shi suddenly spoke, his eyes moved from the plane tree, stared at Li Tai and shouted: "I want to see Yanrong!" ”

Li Tai smiled and put a box of osmanthus cakes in front of the Hou family and said with a smile: "Yanrong will be back soon, his husband Jun Yunshou has become a doctor of Yinqing Guanglu, and he will return to the military department soon, and you will see her soon." ”

"Did Yan Rong give birth to a son?" Hou ignored the osmanthus cake and asked Li Tai sharply.

"Born, two! Yun Ye's mouth was almost crooked with a smile, and he talked about his two grandsons in front of me every day. Li Tai still accompanied the smiling face to make Hou happy as much as possible.

Sure enough, Hou's pale face flushed, and he rudely stuffed a piece of pastry into his mouth and muttered: "That's natural, Yanrong has a noble status, and he is the grandson of the invincible general, in this world, only Yun Ye's son is barely worthy of my child, that child is deeply blessed, and he will naturally give birth to a son."

I'm going to eat my fill, and when my children come and see me, the dead minions never feed me, and when my children come back, I want them all to die!" ”

Li Tai looked at the eunuchs and palace maids gloomily, and the servants immediately kowtowed like pounding garlic, and an old palace maid who had been taking care of the Hou family for a long time trembled and said to Li Tai: "King Mingjian of Wei, the slaves and maids dare not abuse their wife if they have the audacity, and they never dare to lack food for every meal, and even the milk arranged by the princess when she goes out of Beijing has never been cut off. ”

The head of the eunuch who followed behind Li Tai bowed down and said, "Lord Wang, this slave can testify that no one has ever dared to have a shortage of Madame Hou's diet, otherwise Madame would not have survived all these years." ”

Li Tai nodded, his eyes became soft, and when he saw Hou handed him a piece of cake, he smiled and took it, at this time, Hou was like when he had just become his sister-in-law, complaining about whose gift was light, whose gift was delightful, Li Tai took the cake and listened to Hou with a smile, until Hou fell asleep, and then signaled the palace maid to move Hou back to the room.

He turned his head and looked at the head of the eunuch and said: "I know the things in the palace, but you have shown me these two people, if something really happens to them, it will be a big thing, and when the time comes, it will be impossible for Your Majesty to protect your thoughtfulness, remember, remember with your heart!" ”

Li Tai came out of the Hou family, but he didn't have the heart to look at the Zhao family and Li Ju again, looked at the towering palace and sighed, and left the palace in the autumn wind, and when he walked out of the gate, he was still thinking, what Yun Ye said was right, he shouldn't have come to the palace!

However, Li Tai still stood in front of the Suzaku Gate, because he promised the courtiers today that they would go home safely, which was simply a joke, but Li Tai didn't think so now, and moved a chair to sit in front of the gate of the magistrate's house, only allowed to enter, not to go out, he had to wait for the courtiers to leave before leaving.

The prince of Wei sat there like a clay carving and wood sculpture, and now he can only be a mud bodhisattva who prevents disasters, all the courtiers who went out of the palace bowed down when they saw the king of Wei, as if they were worshipping the Bodhisattva, and the head of the sneaky magistrate's house behind him was like a ghost in the underworld, and now there is a bodhisattva to prevent disasters, and everyone's pace will inevitably speed up a little. (For the prestige of the Magistrate's Court, see the old events in the Shenlong period, when Zhou Xing, Suo Yuanli, and Lai Junchen were the real life-seeking ghosts, and the number of people who were framed and killed in just five years reached 3,000, so that the officials had to arrange the aftermath before they went out in the morning!) ）

Li Tai didn't know how long he had been sitting there, until the head of the guard came up to greet him and asked the prince if he wanted to add an extra piece of clothing, so he came out of that wooden feeling, and saw that there were no more people in the palace who went out, so he got up and got on the frame, and for some reason, his heart hurt terribly.

The eldest brother has his own opinions, he can't say right or wrong, and there seems to be no mistake in the position of the Li family, which is probably the reason why the father can tolerate it.

Killing people has never been a royal taboo, it is a necessary means, this truth Li Tai knew when he was very young, and he understood that before he went to Yushan Academy, the gentleman in the study had already broken these truths and explained them countless times, which was the main subject of the imperial doctrine.

Why can't the eldest brother take things for granted? Why do you still vaguely feel that the eldest brother's approach is wrong? Li Tai thought about it for a long time, and finally figured it out, and he found that his eldest brother Li Chengqian had never received an education in Yushan Academy. (To be continued......)
